What makes a good map in Marvel Rivals?

Before diving into our rankings, let’s discuss what makes a map great: It would need equal footing for all characters instead of vast openness supporting long-range playstyle only or numerous tight spots that give melee heroes the advantage. It would also require some varied environments to spice up the gameplay- but most importantly, an epic map must be fun to play on. 

Since the map selection in Marvel Rivals is random, it's important to know what makes each map unique so that you can adjust your strategy correctly. Let's take a look at our ranked list of maps and how they might affect your gameplay decisions.

1. Klyntar: Symbiotic Surface

Game Mode: Convergence

Klyntar: Symbiotic Surface is by far the best Marvel Rivals map. Its unique symbiote mechanic allows players to shoot blobs to create new paths, adding a layer of dynamic gameplay that you can't find on other maps. This innovative feature effectively blends close combat with long-range, providing numerous tactical options for all hero types.

Klyntar is full of diverse environments, from the initial pit arena to thrilling battles over the convoy. Exploration is encouraged, allowing players to find unique vantage points. Perhaps the best aspect is that Klyntar ensures inclusivity, allowing every hero to effectively contribute, regardless of their playstyle.

Best Heroes:

Defending:

• Penny Parker:

Can place her spider bots behind boxes to slow down enemies, where they can’t see them. She is the ideal Vanguard for this map.

• Hawkeye
• Hela
• Winter soldier

All 3 of the above are powerful long-range attackers who can hide behind the boxes on this map to snag kills.

Attacking:

• Doctor Strange: Can use his portals for the first objective
• Groot: Can help block long-range attacks from defenders
• Spider-Man: This is his best map, past the first objective there are many high walls and paths you can swing up; web swing into clusters of enemies and use your ultimate to deal damage.
• Venom

2. Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda: Hall of Djaliaa

Game Mode: Convergence

This is the second-best Marvel Rivals map; players advance through ever-changing monuments and environmental details, thus drawing them into the colorful world of Wakanda. 

Hall of Djalia is the epitome of a smart map design. As teams make their way to the goal, the paths change- thus making gameplay unpredictable. With destructible areas and a mix of close quarters and long ranges, every match feels fresh and adventurous.

Visually impressive Wakandan architecture not only adds to aesthetics but also contributes to tactical depth. The map's excellent flow between distinct combat zones further enhances its overall quality, solidifying its position as one of the best in Marvel Rivals.

Best Heroes:

• Groot: This map has many entryways and multiple paths to attack from, making Groot’s abilities perfect for blocking enemies' sight lines and hindering their progression.
• The Punisher: Can instantly zipline towards the first objective, making him perfect for this map. His turret is strong at blocking strong enemy sight lines.
• Black Panther: A good assassin that can easily steal away kills on the multiple paths of this map.

3. Tokyo 2099: Spider-Islands

Game Mode: Convoy

Spider-Islands surpasses the old Tokyo 2099 by incorporating environmental elements into gameplay. In this version, complexity is added by the verticality of the map, which allows better mobility and thrilling possibilities for both offense and defense.

The greatly open-enclosed-terrain combination facilitates both attacking and defensive gameplay. Destructible components also add to the variety of possibilities within the game: players make their battlefield at will.

Best Heroes:

• Moon night: Can set up his ultimate on very hard-to-reach vantage points.
• Thor: Can get close to enemies while keeping his health up via his abilities and does a lot of damage to knock out enemy duelists and strategists.
• Luna snow: Since the characters are clumped up together in tight spaces, Luna’s attack and heal work perfectly to assist allies and damage the enemies.

This map offers great mobility that allows people to ambush their enemies through various alternative paths. Its mixture of strategic depth, awesome visual appeal, and dynamic play makes it a favorite in Marvel Rivals.
